Educators have been driven to embrace new technological platforms and tools to improve teaching and learning experiences by the rise of flexible learning. This study delves into the ways in which secondary school teachers from the DepEd in the Philippines utilize different types of internet access, gadgets, data plans, and social media platforms. To collect data from a convenience sample of teachers, an online survey was distributed using a quantitative approach. The purpose of the research was to determine whether and to what extent these technical aspects affect the efficacy and contentment of flexible teaching. The results showed that video conferencing platforms and learning management systems (LMS) are crucial, with video conferencing tools coming in second and LMS exhibiting the highest utilization. The most popular device is now a mobile phone, and the most popular operating system is Android. Although a large number of users enjoy consistently fast internet, a significant portion continues to deal with unreliable and sluggish connections. Among the most popular social media platforms for education, Facebook Messenger has the support of the majority of respondents and offers unlimited data rates. Results show that learning management systems (LMS) and video conferencing tools are critical, point to places where other technologies might be better integrated, and stress the influence that poor internet quality has on the effectiveness of instruction. This study helps fill gaps in the knowledge of the technology landscape in online and hybrid classrooms and offers suggestions for improving teaching methods. It would be beneficial for future studies to investigate how these technological aspects relate to particular results in terms of instructional efficacy and student involvement.
